According to Pornhub Insights, lesbian porn was the most viewed category by women in 2014. Fast forward five years and the trend only continues to grow.
Pornhub found that porn videos that highlight lesbianism, fingering, pussy licking, or that are tagged as “porn for women” or “romantic” are viewed 260% more by people who identify as female than those who identify as male. As the internet’s largest website for free porn, Pornhub’s statistics come from viewings of over 42 billion which seems to grow each year. This is even more polarizing when you take into account the fact that women make up only 32% of the viewing pool (23% in 2014).
This major increase of female viewers in a five-year span seems to signal a positive, sexually healthy, and explorative outlook on pornography and a blossoming market for adult film studios. So why are the majority of adult films directed and produced by cismen?
It is true that the adult film industry comes off as a big boys club. But in reality, women and other minorities are now represented by successful producers and filmmakers more than ever before. In 2002, Courtney Trouble launched NoFauxxx.com (now IndiePornRevolution) and changed the landscape of LGBTQ porn forever. They created a new community full of diverse members who found their voice and empowerment through their content and ushered in a new era of adult film.
Today, we have the pleasure of being able to view content produced by some of the most badass women in porn: Erika Lust, Petra Joy, and Shine Louise Houston. The three have garnered over 50 nominations and awards in the adult film industry and are founders of some of the best female and LGBTQ porn sites today.
Unlike their male counterparts, these film producers give women and other marginalized communities what they really want–realistic porn they could see themselves creating. Say goodbye to long fingernails, violent scissoring, and obviously forced moaning, and wave hello to real, ethically-produced, intimate porn shot by the groups it caters to.
14 best lesbian porn sites
1. xConfessions
Oh wow, xConfessions. Created by the boss director in porn herself, Erika Lust, this site is everything porn should be. A membership includes full access to all the content on the site, as well as the ability to anonymously post your own fantasies to an online wall with the lucky chance Erika herself will develop it into an erotic short film.

If you’ve been searching for quality films that showcase women’s pleasure in a sex-positive and sexually intelligent narrative, xConfessions has it. Looking for relatable fantasies? This site has that, too.
2. Adult Time
Winner of over 34 awards in 2020, including Paysite of the Year from XBIZ, Adult Time is quickly becoming one of the top mega-sites around. With over 100 channels, 50,000 episodes, five new releases per day, and a mix of original and curated content, Adult Time is almost too much porn. Spanning full-length movies to themed scenes, Adult Time offers a little bit of everything, so you’ll have no problem finding the what you crave. Adult Time’s award-winning original content is augmented by scenes from Vivid, Girlsway, Burning Angel, and other top companies. It even features an incredibly diverse range of performers. Adult Time is one of the best deals in porn.
3. Bellesa Films
This one is for the porn connoisseurs who’ve been searching for porn that looks…well, real! If scripted sex scenes just aren’t cutting it anymore, Bellesa Films is tailor-made for you. The site’s original videos films have been made by women for women. So the focus of each and every video is on female pleasure. Get ready for a lot of ass action with a much sweeter delivery. No more obviously fake O’s or foreplay that makes you cringe. Bellesa Films brings the tension and passion with every scene, leaving you sweaty and breathless after. The site boasts top categories such as female orgasms, couples, group sex, fingering and ass play. One visit to Bellesa, and you’ll never look back.
4. Vixen
One visit to the Vixen site, and you’ll be pleased. Whether it’s the huge sneak peek banner, the preview clips underneath, or the featured models and titles on display. Everything is sexy and sensual. Without even clicking into view, you can already tell that Vixen knows how to do porn. Its biggest draw is that the site is full of only “natural” models. So if you’re in porn for the realistic values of it, Vixen caters to that. This site only uploads videos in crisp, clean, and highly-intoxicating HD. New content is uploaded to the site every five days, so boredom is out of the question.
In terms of the content itself, there’s no denying the quality and coherence of the Vixen site, however, that might also be its biggest downfall. While all the models are natural, the diversification of the models is subpar. If you’re looking for curvaceous, queer, lesbian, or trans content, this might not be your first choice. With that being said, Vixen has definitely mastered the art of HD sensual content catered to their audience, so the content it does have is great! It just needs more of it.
5. IndiePornRevolution
IndiePornRevolution should be on the radar of anyone talking about lesbian porn. Originally NoFauxxx.com, Indie Porn Revolution was founded by the queen of queer porn themself, Courtney Trouble. At the age of 19, Courtney created and launched the site. (Which is now the longest-running queer porn website) and has since directed and starred in over 50 films and scenes.
IPR is a queer paradise that highlights the community like no other. It gives a voice to anyone who wants to be heard. The platform is as unique as its content, almost resembling a blog. Amidst the videos and the models, members can access and download erotic photosets and watch cum&glitter, a sponsored live sex show site run entirely by sex workers, artists, and porn stars in the Bay Area. If your a history buff with a penchant for queer porn of all shapes and sizes, give the oldest queer porn site a chance.
6. Queer Porn TV
Queer Porn TV is like a flying unicorn and should be protected at all costs. Yes, there are other LGBTQ porn websites out there that showcase racially and sexually diverse models, but none have a free viewing platform like this one. To clarify, QueerPorn TV is membership-based and well worth the sign up with over 150 scenes and films available for viewing and purchase. However, it also offers QPTV which showcases hundreds of adult and sex-education films featuring the same models for free. You won’t find the most user-friendly web design or professional headshots here, but, thankfully, when it comes to porn the only thing that really matters is the content itself. Headed up by queer household name Courtney Trouble, this site has put its community before profitability and for that, it deserves to be on this list.
7. Lust Cinema
Lust Cinema is another beautiful creation from one of our favorite directors, Erika Lust. The site boasts a robust selection of top-tier original films. Once you pop open a tab, a tantalizing slideshow of Lust Cinema’s newest features engulfs the screen to display tasteful and sensual covers. The homepage’s categories are divided into a few categories. With a quick browse, you’ll find the latest additions, movies, short series, and original content. But with over 120 films to choose from it’s easy to lose your spot (which is why we recommending opening the films the pique your interest in a new tab).
One of the best features on the site is the Netflix series style of porn that engages actors over a period of short films to further a storyline. If this realistic approach to porn sounds too good to be true, add on the two-for-one deal (that’s two months of premium for the price of one) happening now for new members and it’s almost like entering a fairy tale!
Since Lust Cinema is widely regarded as one of the best shops in the industry, you can feel good about your subscription. Its also known to fairly employ all of its performers and strive for equitable, ethical porn.
8. PinkLabel.TV
PinkLabel has established itself as one of the heavy hitters in the adult film industry. It was also created by Pink and White’s director and founder Shine Houston. The site hosts over 50 different indie porn studios (including Erica Lust, Pink and White Productions, and many more). The people behind the site understand porn markets go beyond the stereotypes. They do their part in showcasing underrepresented groups in the adult film industry. This includes filming with models that are queer, trans, POC, seniors, and people with disabilities.
This ethical hosting site offers a premium membership that gets you access to everything. This includes a curated collection of hundreds of titles, unlimited access to the films, and a permanent streaming library. All memberships help support PinkLabel’s own featured independent directors and studios. So if you’re looking to whet your appetite with various high-quality films showcasing diversity in porn made by and for minorities in the industry, PinkLabel is your best bet.
9. Lustery
Lustery is the only site on this list that fully relies on couple-submitted amateur lesbian porn. I know what you’re thinking: “I don’t want to spend hours searching through poorly lit, shaky camera videos.” Don’t worry. While couples do film their own videos, they’re all in HD and most have surprisingly great camera work.
The real upside to this site is getting to see real couples at work in their own homes. This is part of the reason I absolutly fawn over Lustery. These videos are all so unique in the sense that there’s no set, no film crew, and tons of personality. These real-life couples have an intimacy on screen that no standard porn site has been able to imitate.
Perks to being a member are….well, everything! Membership gets you access to the videos, couple bios, your own personalized hub. As well as the ability to submit your own videos and join the couples club. The site presents itself like no other porn site. We’re talking a fresh color palette, sweet font, and easy to navigate tabs that will leave no video unturned. For the porn watcher who’s been searching for the most real of the real, or simply looking for completely different videos, Lustery is a must.
10. Couples Cinema
Introducing porn into your relationship can be difficult. Couple Cinema takes the stress out by curating content from today’s top porn auteurs at a low price.
The difference between erotica and porn is often just pretension and intention. Take the artists making porn for couples at Couples Cinema. These creative adult films are made by indie directors of adult cinema that believe eroticism comes before anything else. You can expect to see thoughtful camera angles and compelling emotional stories along with your orgies and cumshots.
This budget-priced site offers hundreds of films from a wide range of filmmakers. We suggest couples start with the aptly named Couple Fantasies films. They have the hottest performers, and their commitment to storytelling adds a relatable spark for new porn fans.
11. CrashPad Series
Another hit from Shine Houston is the CrashPad Series, based on Houston’s cult classic original film The Crash Pad. This series follows the original plot of the film. All of the episodes are filmed in the same San Francisco apartment that’s dedicated to hosting queer sex events.
In my opinion, the best feature of this site is the content. In terms of diversity and real sex, you can’t do better than the CrashPad series. The models are natural beauties in all shapes and sizes from all backgrounds, sexual identities, orientations, and races. To top it all off, the chemistry is so intense it almost feels like an out-of-body experience. There are over 300 episodes in the series and each episode contains its own behind-the-scenes footage. Members also have access to the library of feature-length films, including the original CrashPad movie that inspired the series.
In an unprecedented move, CrashPad Series features a “hide” toggle. So before you go sifting through all the glorious porn, you can choose to filter and hide videos that contain scenes you don’t like or find triggering. some of the filters include ejaculation, consensual rough sex (including choking, flogging, spitting, slapping, etc.), fisting, BDSM, anal play (anal penetration, rimming, butt plugs, etc.), strap-ons and wearable vibrators.
12. Cinema Joy
Cinema Joy is for anyone who enjoys lesbian porn centered around female pleasure. Founded by another boss, Petra Joy–who has been the recipient of over five major awards, the site boasts a cast of all-female directors. Joy has won the Feminist Porn Award, the Trans Award, and the Cinekink Award.
You won’t see a category menu on the site, but there is an advanced search bar. So if you have a particular type of film in mind, you’ll find it easy-peasy. When searching “lesbian,” premium scenes from notable films like Snapshot, Strap on Motel, and CrashPad: Guide to Fisting populate alongside feature-length lesbian films. If viewing all of Petra’s content isn’t enough of a draw for you, the rest of the erotic, female-oriented porn should do it.
What’s included is truly a filthy sight to behold. Unfortunately, updates aren’t as regular as we’d like. For example, it only added five movies in 2019. However, the back catalog includes over 100 exclusive scenes and blisteringly erotic curated content.
13. Brazzers
If you know Brazzers, you know the site’s unofficial motto is “go big or go home!”. When you enter the main page, banners spotlight models and videos. All of the previews are organized by the latest additions to the site, most popular this week, and soon-to-be released videos.
One of the best features on this site is the “watch later” tab. This way you never miss the videos that pique your interest. The promo tab is great for finding deals on other websites you may not know exist. And the abundance of categories gives you seemingly endless options. All the models on site are exactly as described, too. So you’ll have a near-exact idea of what to expect before you even press play. When you think of big and beautiful ladies and all their ass-ets, Brazzers is definitely the place to be.
14. Pornhub Premium
Let’s be real. With over 42 billion site visits in 2019, 90% of you porn viewers out there have probably reached orgasm on Pornhub at least once. You’re familiar with the layout and product offering, and you might be happy with it. But what if there was a way to get a lot more out of the experience? That’s what Pornhub Premium reaches for–and in my opinion, achieves.
The best selling point right now is the site’s free trial membership. (Along with the option to add Brazzers access for $1 per day). Thumbnails offer sneak previews of thousands of HD videos. Some of which are from renowned studios like Vixen, Team Skeet, Nubile Films, Hentai.xxx, and more. On top of that, you’ll get access to Pornhub’s library of 30,000 full-length original films. Wanna see that ass clap up close? Tune in to thousands of VR videos online or on the mobile app. With Pornhub offering the widest variety of porn on the internet, its premium subscription does not disappoint.
Clearly, porn is not one-dimensional like the major free streaming sites (cough, cismen, cough) would like us to believe. Thanks to today’s sexual pioneers (Courtney, Petra, Erika, we’re looking at you) there’s so much out there to be discovered! The next time you grab your device to get off, try your hand at one of these subscription sites. We promise you won’t regret it.
